For the last eight years my husband and I have traveled to midcoast Maine for a two week vacation in August. We were glad to be back at our little rental house on the water, but as expected, we spent our days in a different way this year. One of my favorite activities is the Monsweag Flea Market. Table after table of old stuff. I end up going through twice because you always see different things the second time around. There is almost no limit to the time I can spend at flea markets. Unfortunately like many things, there was no flea market this year. One favorite stop was open, Treasures and Trash Barn in Searsport. More than once I have left with a pile of old shutters tied to the top of the car. This year I found some great old wood, an old wheel and the sides from an old box of railway fire extinguishers that will look great on a spice rack.
